Ex-Super Eagles star, Chinedu Obasi has opened up on the Super Eagles bribery scandal when he claimed he was asked to pay a bribe in exchange for a place in the 2014 FIFA World Cup squad.

He said; “I just said what happened to me and I am not going to call anybody’s name and that is my opinion. But if they feel otherwise, I have proof to back it up.”

“I am telling you about what happened to me, you don’t have to doubt me. I don’t have anything to lose, I don’t expect anything from anybody.”

“So when people say names or not, it’s not going to change anything. There have been a number of allegations in Nigerian football, what has happened? It’s not going to change anything.”

“I respect everyone’s opinion. I never intended to disrespect any of our ex-players. I respect them and what they’ve done for the country.”

“It is my story and when I’m talking about my story, then some people would say something like that cannot happen – were you there?”

“We all have to accept that things like this happen in Nigeria, not just in football.”
